this happened to smaller/mid size company as well. a long time ago i work for a mid size company with a small division that sell specialized software build with Delphi. its a desktop app. when i got hired by the company, they outsourced it to Capgemini. after 3 years, they still can't get the app convert to .Net. (that's the goal) by the time i got out the company. they changed to another more local company instead of big outsource firm like Capgemini. they still haven't got it all work out and the new company they hired throw away all the code done by Capgemini. the whole project was estimate to be 2 million by Capgemini.
